This reads like a brochure and needs a less propoganda-like tone, especially in sections about stuff like "vision." User:Cwilli201

Oh yes, it seems like the bulk of the article was lifted off of the information brochure for the university. I think it requires some major changes to make it sound more NPOV. 69.25.229.25 10:17, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

I have removed everything that I found to be a copyvio from text online. Other text may also violate the university's copyright. Angr (talk) 10:33, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Alumni Section

If it can be verified that every person in the alumni section holds the titles/positions or are actually doing what the section implies,then I suggest removing any name that can't be backed up by some sorce Sru79 05:39, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

There is a source for Ryan Muldowney. He has a page on IMDB. The address is: [1]—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.168.247.209 (talk) 22:56, 24 June 2007 (UTC).

Okay I followed the link you provided and couldn’t find a title of television producer anywhere in the page. So, due to the fact that he is not a producer of television shows, but an assistant to a production crew more notably in post production, I am reverting it back to production assistant. I don’t even know what American Dad is on there for since its states that he is working in the animation department doing animatics. So anonymous user 76.168.247.209, please do not falsify information. Sru79 03:16, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Since American Dad is an animated show,animation is obviously part of the production process. And assistants are active participants in a television production. They aren't just assisting a crew, they are actually working to produce a product. Feel free to change it to assistant if it will help you sleep better at night, but I think whoever put it on there did so just to simplify. ]—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.168.247.209 (talk) 03:24, 25 June 2007 (UTC).

SRU79. How do we verify employment/position??

So as per your definition; a camera operator works on a program and captures footage. That captured footage aids in producing a product. Therefore a camera operator is really a television producer.
Lets just keep it as is.

Other job titles that can’t be verified are:

• Brian "Scoop" Gilliespie - Media Personality
• Mark A. Kratz - Financial Analyst - The Boeing Company
• Michael J. Mallory - Play by Play broadcaster, Frontier League Baseball
• Russell J. O'Connor - Senior Financial Analyst - TIAA-CREF

All other names are verified. Sru79 06:34, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Verification Documents

SRU79, Please use this section to post allowable documents to verify positions etc. How does one go about submitting these documents?

To answer that, I will reply by writing that there needs to be an identification of reputable third-party sources that can verify your person of interest, mostly through articles on the web. This will explain it better than I ever could Wikipedia:Verifiability Hoped that helped Sru79 19:56, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
